Don't take your eyes off the competition, but do take a break. Here's advice on mistakes to avoid when looking for work


Don't be afraid to blow your own trumpet

Applying for one of the recent vacancies in Nigeria is often a difficult and demoralising process, but it's important to stay positive and learn from your mistakes. Here are ten common mistakes you should try to avoid:

Passing on responsibility for your job hunt

It's important that you don't try and blame others for your job hunting difficulties. Focus on positive action rather than negative thoughts. Brush pessimism to one side and look to the future. What's happened has happened, but by taking control of the current situation and letting your personality shine through, you will overcome this.

Make your job search your sole focus in life

Enjoy family time, eat well and exercise. Leave the house each day, volunteer, learn new skills, meet people and maintain a balance in your life. We all need interaction and variety: often the harder you chase something, the more it eludes you.

Take rejection personally

Unfortunately it's rare to be offered the first job you apply for — it's just not that easy. So, accept rejection as part of the process and always ask for, and even more importantly learn from, feedback. The job you don't get helps you next time so always push for feedback and act on it.

Search in the same place as others

Surfing the online job boards is an important first port of call in finding a job, but there are also lots of other places you can explore. For example, you could look at recommendations, referrals and professional networks as this market can be less competitive.

Fail to deliver a clear message
Employers are interested in where you have added value, not everything you've ever done. Make sure they can see the wood from the trees. Think of yourself as a movie trailer and not the whole film – what is it about you that generates enough excitement and interest for an employer to buy a ticket to the main feature?

Hide it from the people in your life

Although searching for your next job is a personal experience, don't try and do it all alone. Share the experience with your loved ones and you'll be far stronger and more effective in your quest.

Apply for every job you come across

This makes you look desperate and you'll lose focus. Try to take more time on fewer applications and don't adopt the scatter gun approach. Throwing more mud at the wall won't lead to more success, just more mess. Nothing puts an employer off more than you not knowing anything about their business or what the role entails and, if you have multiple applications out in the field, keeping track of them all becomes an impossible task.
 
Be afraid to push yourself forward

This is no time to lurk in the shadows. Don't be afraid to shine, blow your own trumpet and tell people how good you are and what value you can bring to their business. Confidence, not arrogance, is the key here – don't let your skills and experience be the best kept secret.

Forget that times change

If you've not been in the job market for a few years, you might have expectations that are unrealistic. It's easy to think that it's exactly the same as when you last looked for a position, but times have changed. Take a more enlightened approach and try to gain more understanding of the modern job market and how best to place yourself in it.

Take your eye off the competition

Make sure you differentiate yourself from other vying for the latest jobs in Nigeria. Instantly falling in line with what the competition is doing will put you at a distinct disadvantage.

Think not only about your skills and experience but also your key achievements. These should be things where you have made a difference and done something out of the ordinary. Your competition is likely to have similar responsibilities but achievements are unique to you. Think about a particular situation, what you did and quantify the outcome or result where possible. This way of thinking and presentation on your CV falls in line with the competency-based interview style of questioning and will help you make an even better impression once you get to interview. Knowledge is power and the more you know about yourself and what makes you different, the better placed you are to attack the job market and find your next position.

All you die hard muslims should better shut up and face the truh

pendy79:
When will this man learn to keep his trap shut n continue to feed fat from the fountain of political patronage of PDP and GEJ.

How many fatwas have been given against ISIS in the middleast, how many public broadcast and messages has eminent Islamic jurists given to adherent to the stupid and non scriptural acts of Boko Haram? If the first instruction of Angel Jubril to the the prophet of Islam was IQRA(read) where will BH now say it got its own version of Education being forbidden.

Guess the day SHAME was shared in the heavens, pastor bling bling wasn't at home. He keeps spewing rubbish Everytime he talks. Shiek Jaffar was killed for preaching against their ideology, shiek gunmi escaped a suicide bombing attack, many eminent scholars killed in cold blood all because they countered the sentiment and belief of boko haram.

He should leave serious matters of state security to wise counsels and continue in his gun running or money laundering private jet kabukabu biz.

So on point.....when ever we stop being diplomatic and speak bluntly on this Haram issue like this man of God,that's when we will get it right.

If he doesn't rep his state who will ?

heykims:
So na only Osun dem dey abi? Ode oshi, abi kuku confess say u never explore Nigerian soil beyond d boundary of the State of Osun.
Op, na just packaging jare, except u wan gist us d constitutional point of view...

That's funny indeed

JEITO:
I tink the use of "international" is a marketing strategy aimed at hyping the school to make it sound tushed.

Reminds me of frank donga that wanted to travel to america to boost his professional profile

cecejobs:
Like seriously, the 1st time I heard such; ***Int'l High school, I wz expecting to see a gigantic school with world class standard, but what I saw made me shiver that day. Its very common in Osun state for schs. #nonsense

Please any one with a contrary meaning or reasons for such trend should please feel free to comment.

Is now a general trend for business owners,schools and hotels to use the word "international" to mean quality or a thing of high standard.In Nigeria you will stumble into such names as right brain international school,Kerytel international hotel or some thing like Emeka international ventures, even when the so call investment exist only in the shores of Nigeria. The last time I checked oxford dictionary defined "international" to mean "happening or existing between two or more nations" .

Solcited but unadvertised

chyna4luv:
Hello kaycee, I'm quoting Abagal's post to make my contribution BECAUSE his post sounds more meaningful to me. Had it been you had responded to his post, I am very sure he would have given you the right counselling to your request.

My observations regarding your cover letter are thus;
-It sounds like you are submitting an unsolicited application for the role of a front desk and WON'T earn you an interview invite because it shows you're not confident about the role you're actually applying for.
-Make your CL straight to the point, DON'T talk about how you knew about the vacancy.
-The CL is not too lengthy. It's okay BUT the paragraphs are talking about the samething. Each paragraph SHOULD have a subject matter.

my phone can't type much.Please Continue reading from the next page.

Unadvertised but exist

agabaI23:
Kaycee911 are you there?
Come in lets chat a bit.

1. Was the position advertised or is this an unsolicited application?

Plz what's ur take on the receivers intro ?

chyna4luv:
--Your salutation doesn't show that you respect your reader. e.g Dear Sir, or Dear Ma,
---Make your cover letter attract your reader to call you for an interview by using a good closing remarks which most of our friends here have disclosed to you here.
--Let your reader know that you attached your CV.

--Above All, ensure that your cover letter talks about the required skills and experiences that matches the job role you are applying for. This should be the watchword.

Thanks for enabling me to contribute.
Thumb up ABAGAL.

Plz criticise my method of introducing the receivers address,the salutation and besides the job was not advertised is a direct link up but still need to follow due process, so how do I put this................in response to the placement on.............

Acegoals:
Please the bolded is not necessary. They are sure looking for one, if not you would not be applying. This is not a generic cover letter it is specific

First rule in writing cover letter: I want to know how you got to know about the vacancy

Second Rule: Let all I read make me want to take a look at your CV (even if it is lengthy)

Third Rule: Keep it short! Though you may have a lengthy Cover Letter which will make me take a look at your CV, I may not have the patience to read the second paragraph and the third and the fourth...

In my years of CV screening and scrutiny of Cover Letters for our clients (where I work) I have come across several letters. One thing job seekers should always pray for is that their applications and letters should meet the recruiter in a good and joyful mood not a tired, dizzy and annoyed mood. Commit it to God and all (even with all the DOs and DON'Ts) will be well once God is involved (but you must do your part)


You could go this way (such could wake me from tiredness having read over 100 such application)

In response to your job placement on [..............] I am glad to present myself for an opportunity to apply and put to use my skills in your establishment. I possess an innovative mind capable of initiating a process for organizational results and surmounting challenges as related to [job position]

End it with a very few more lines... You could put it as creatively as possible but choose you words right and make it sharp.

Good luck.

Do u mean I shld use "Dear sir,instead of dear recruiting officer"
